New
Video Action
July 2001 | Rocky
|
PC
Gameplay magazine has released
brand new video footage of Ghost
Recon in action to European gamers!
The footage was shot at E3 and although
quite short is of qood quality.
It starts with a third person view
of one of the Ghosts taking up a
prone position under a bush. Taking
aim he wastes no time in despatching
the unsuspecting enemy crouched
behind a wall of sandbags. The magazine
also has 2 pages of images, although
they are the same shots first shown
by Dutch site Tactical
Games.

New
Recon Art 16 July
2001 | Rocky
| Tactical
Games have scooped an exclusive
Ghost Recon Art image. Assuming an
American date format, it is a sketch
from November last year, and depicts
two buildings, I am not sure if this
is the infamous "pistol whipping"
farmhouse scene though. |

Modding Ghost
Recon 4 July
2001 | Rocky
Red Storm have announced that Ghost Recon
will ship with a mission editor similar
to the Rogue Spear Editor. That means
no map editor, and some unhappy bunnies
in the mod community. But does it make
a difference? Does it matter to the success
of a game if it has full mod support?
Does it matter to majority of games or
is it purely a fringe interest. Read our
new report
and draw your own conclusions, then join
the discussion
and make your opinion known.

Ubi Soft Community
1 July 2001 | Rocky
Ubi Soft is gearing up for a brand new community,
which will include Ghost Recon. For a quick
look at how Ubi Soft Germany produced their
on-line games community check out the community
link on this
page. I would guess that the new dot com
community will include a similar forum and perhaps
a Fan section similar to the OFP community.
